3. CHARLES DARWIN : 1809-1882 ENGLISH NATURALIST
TRAVELED AROUND THE WORLD ON THE BEAGLE – FAMOUS IN THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS
OBSERVED MANY SPECIES AND FOSSILS
WHY DID SOME SPECIES SURVIVE WHILE OTHERS BECAME EXTINCT?
PUBLISHED “ON THE ORIGIN OF THE SPECIES” MAKING THE CASE FOR EVOLUTION
NATURAL SELECTION

14. MECHANISMS FOR EVOLUTION
DO POPULATIONS OR INDIVIDUALS EVOLVE?
WHAT IS A GENE POOL
HOW CAN THE GENE POOL CHANGE?
MUTATION
GENETIC DRIFT
GENE FLOW
WOULD THESE THINGS EFFECT A LARGE POPULATION OR A SMALL POPULATION MORE?
